Horse on the World

Chapter 39 Development Plan

In Chong County, in the General's Mansion, Li Qing spread his hands and said to Shang Haibo: "What can I do? To tell you the truth, I have nothing to do." There were only the two of them in the study. Coal has begun to be popular in Chong County. Accepted, in Li Qing's general's mansion, earth dragons were planted under every room, and when the fire was lit, the room was as warm as spring, so although the two of them were dressed very thinly, they didn't feel the chill at all.

The door opened, and Qingfeng walked in slowly holding the tea tray, put two cups of high-quality green tea in front of the two of them, smiled and nodded to Shang Haibo, then bowed his head and backed out.

Looking at Qingfeng's back, Shang Haibo said thoughtfully: "It's okay for the soldiers in the barracks, but it's hard for these rescued slaves. There are too many people talking, and this road in Jiming Lake will eventually be exposed. day."

"That's right, so before that, we must gather our army and prepare for war, in case the barbarians will attack us from here at any time." Li Qing pointed his fingers on the map of Chong County on the case between the two of them.

"I have inquired carefully about Shanfeng, and there is a place in Jiming Lake with a radius of [-] meters, which is completely solid. I plan to send people there to build a small fortress in Jiming Lake after the spring of next year. , as long as more than a hundred soldiers are stationed, it can be impenetrable."

Shang Haibo shook his head and said: "General, isn't this place without 300 taels of silver? Didn't you just tell others that this Jiming Lake is weird, otherwise why spend money and effort building a fortress in this Jiming Lake?"

Li Qing smiled strangely, "Mr. Shang, there are good things in Jiming Ze!"

"Good things?" Shang Haibo's head was a little dazed, how could there be any good things.

Li Qingdao: "Mr. Shang, our Chong County has many mountains and little land, but there is a lot of wasteland in Jiming Lake, but most of them are raw fields. Even if they are reclaimed, it will be difficult to get any harvest, right?"

Shang Haibo nodded, the general is very clear-headed!
"So, we went to dig Jiming Lake. The silt in Jiming Lake is very fat! Dig it out and pile it on the barren fields to improve the land there. In this way, when we planted it in the past, it can be improved in the same year. There is a harvest."

Li Qing spoke excitedly, stood up and paced back and forth in the room, waved his hands and said: "Jiming Ze has a radius of tens of miles, we only dug a small part close to us, and dug away the silt. Is it a natural lake? What can we do? We can raise fish, we can raise chickens, ducks and geese, right? You see, in this way, turning waste into treasure, the Jimingze, which was nothing before, will become ours A cornucopia, food, meat, everything."

Li Qing, who spoke dryly, picked up the teacup, raised his head and drank it down. Shang Haibo remained motionless, staring blankly at Li Qing. He was originally here to discuss with Li Qing about the defense of Jiming Ze. I was very worried that the exposure of this secret passage would deal a fatal blow to Chong County, but I never thought that Li Qing would think of so many things at once, and jump from military to civil affairs.Rao's mind was unusually keen, and at this time, Li Qing was talking loudly, looking at Li Qing strangely, who is this guy, and what is in his head?

"General, this is civil affairs. You should go to County Magistrate Xu and Lao Lu!" he said in a nasty voice.

Li Qing waved his hand, "Mr. Shang, you are my chief military advisor. You have to participate in both military and civil affairs. What's more, the two are combined into one in Jiming Ze. I'm going to be here The uncultivated fields that have been cultivated, as well as the breeding in the future, will be directly assigned to the army. In the spring of next year, we will do it, and we can use this to cover our little move of building a fort in Jiming Lake." Li Qing said triumphantly.

Shang Haibo was refreshed when he heard these words. Li Qing had clarified his status in Chong County and even Changsheng Camp. Although Wang Qinian and others regarded him as the second person under Li Qing, this was just a subconscious The reaction was brought about by Shang Haibo's strong performance. The so-called reputation is not strict, and now that Li Qing has spoken, he has officially established his position.

With a happy smile on his face, Shang Haibo said: "Okay, since the general has already made up his mind, then I will go down and prepare. For such a big move, the preliminary preparations must be detailed, so as not to be in a hurry when it happens." Stand up , stood up and said goodbye, "Hai Bo will return to the camp now, discuss a detailed plan with Wang Jiangfeng and Guo four, and report it to the general for review in two days."

Li Qing nodded, "Okay, the sooner the better, after the Chinese New Year, it will be spring, and it will start as soon as the weather gets warmer, let's hurry up, time will never wait for us! Oh yes, this thing is for you!" Walking to the desk, I flipped through it for a while , After digging through Qingfeng Jiyue’s neatly organized case, I finally found a blueprint and handed it to Shang Haibo, “This is the fortress I designed for that fortress, take it and have a look. Follow this blueprint when building.”

Shang Haibo was shocked again. Generals can build fortresses. This is a technical job. When he looked at the blueprints in his hand, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded. This fortress looks weird, and it doesn't look like the fortress style used by Da Chutong now. architecture. "What is this, a fortress?"

Li Qing nodded, "Of course, this kind of fortress is called a bastion. Well, you don't understand it, but after you go down, you can make a model with Wang Qinian and others, and try it to know its power."

Shang Haibo, who consciously learned from poor heaven and man, knew everything about astronomy, geography and military strategy, was deeply hit, and staggered all the way to leave the general's mansion.

Qingfeng opened the door of the study, carrying a tray with a bowl of millet porridge and a few side dishes, walked in, put the tray on the table, arranged them one by one, and said: "General, it's getting late, drink Order porridge to warm your stomach!"

Li Qing and monk Haibo breathed lightly for several hours, but he was really hungry. He sat down at the table and said with a smile, "I'm really hungry. It's so late, why haven't you gone back to rest!"

Qingfeng picked up the oil lamp with a smile, and said: "The general is still busy with official duties, how can I go to rest!" While talking, he tidied up Li Qing's messy books, "General, why don't you still When the master left, his face was strangely tense, and he was muttering, so strange!"

Li Qing finished the porridge in two or three strokes, wiped his mouth, and said with a smile: "I was hit, it's nothing, I'll be fine in two days." Hey, the porridge tastes different today, it's not Mrs. Yang's handicraft, "Qingfeng, did you cook the porridge today?" Li Qing asked casually.

"Yes!" Qingfeng replied inadvertently, "Sister-in-law Yang has been busy all day. I saw that she was very tired, so I asked him to go to bed. I thought the general would go to bed early, but when Mr. Shang came, you The two talked endlessly, so they cooked some millet porridge, why, isn't it good?"

"No, no, it's delicious, very delicious!" Li Qing hurriedly said, Qingfeng's snow-white face couldn't help but turn red, and turned around to continue tidying up the house.

Looking at Qingfeng's busy figure in the study room, it is a bit seductive. Qingfeng is really pretty. Although she doesn't dress up intentionally now, even the coarse linen clothes on her body make her look extraordinarily beautiful. "Well, the two sisters are indeed beautiful, but they are more charming than Qingfeng. Jiyue, it hasn't bloomed yet." Li Qing couldn't help comparing the two sisters, how many women were around It's really good, at least now my life is more regular, and my clothes are cleaner, I don't know what Qingfeng has done, after passing through her hands, the clothes on my body always have a faint fragrance.

When I turned around and saw Li Qing staring at me intently, Qingfeng couldn't help but blushed for a moment, "General, what's the matter?"

"Oh, it's nothing, it's nothing!" Li Qing quickly stood up and said, "It's late, how about it, I'll take you back."

"No need, I live not far from here." Qingfeng quickly refused.

"It doesn't matter, anyway, I just drank your millet porridge, and I just need to take a walk. After staying in the house for a long time, it's good to go out to breathe fresh air." Li Qing picked up his coat and put it on his body.

When the two of them walked out of the room, the bitter cold air rushed towards their faces, and the breeze that had just walked out of the warm room shivered suddenly, "Why, is it cold?" Li Qing asked with concern.

"Fortunately, it's not cold!" Qingfeng hurriedly said.

Yang Yidao came up to meet her, "General, let me send Miss Qingfeng back!"

Li Qing waved his hand, "Forget it, forget it, I'll take it off for a little distance, you've been tired all day, go rest!" After finishing speaking, he ignored Yang Yidao, and walked out side by side with Qingfeng.

Yang Yidao moved forward, thought for a while, then stopped, and Tang Hu rushed out behind him, "Yangtou, no, the general seems to be interested in this Qingfeng!"

"Shut up!" Yang Yidao glared at Cyclops, "No one will think you are dumb if you don't speak! Go, the two of us will follow quietly."

Tang Hu shook his head and said: "The general will send the beauty back at night, and we will follow to ruin the scenery. Aren't you afraid that the general will be angry?"

Yang Yidao said angrily: "You bastard, do you want Mr. Shang to hit us again, I mean follow up quietly, and don't let the general know?"

Tang Hu shivered, thinking of Shang Haibo's face, he was actually a little scared, "Yangtou is right, we will quietly." The two followed on tiptoe.

The snow stepped on their feet and made a creaking sound. The two of them didn't know what to say for a while, and they walked for a while in silence. Then Li Qing asked: "Qingfeng, have you installed the earth dragon?"

"Thank you, General, for your concern. Our sisters have also installed earth dragons everywhere. Now, whether it is the place where the children go to class or where we live, it is very warm."

"Don't have a relationship with me like this!" Li Qing said sullenly, "You are all people around me. If you have such a relationship, wouldn't it be boring."

Qingfeng remained silent, bowed his head forward, "The general is our sister's great benefactor, thank you is the right thing to do."

Li Qing shook his head, "What are you going to do in the future, are you really not going back?"

Qingfeng shook his head, "What to do in the future, Qingfeng has never thought about it, maybe it's good to live like this for the rest of my life."

Li Qing looked at her sideways, but saw that her face was snow-white, without a trace of blood, perhaps because of the cold, her shoulders shrank inward, and her whole body shrank a little, and her thin figure seemed even thinner.

"People, always have to look forward. There are some things that should be forgotten, just forget them! Thousands of sails pass by the side of a sinking boat, and thousands of sick trees are in spring. Don't always live in pain. There are more things in life. What wonderful things are waiting for you!"

Qingfeng stopped, turned around and looked at Li Qing, with a painful look on her face, "I, will I have a new life? No, General, you don't know, a woman lost her most precious After everything, what will be the fate that awaits her?"

Li Qing stared blankly at the two lines of tears streaming down from Qingfeng's eyes. The wind blew her long hair and danced in the air. Despair appeared in those eyes. He gently hugged her into his arms, "Yes, you will have a better life, promise me, don't give up, always look forward."

Leaning on Li Qing's broad shoulders, Qingfeng suddenly felt that she had found the security she had never had before, and a feeling of finding support came to her heart instantly. She wrapped her arms around Li Qing's waist, and she burst into tears.All the unwillingness, sadness, and pain in my stomach were turned into tears and gushed out.
